Great location with decent renovations complete

Location is prime for quick & easy restaurants, H-E-B, Town Lake trail, Rainey Street, and the dog park at 35 & Riverside. Great pool and people makes for a fun & relaxed feel in the community. The apartment itself is renovated with modern floors, cabinets, and sink. My biggest complaint is the lack of closet space. All you get is the bedroom closet, which has really cumbersome sliding doors and no lighting whatsoever. The renovations are excellent in the main living space & kitchen, prett

Solid place to live

In an up and coming area. Apartments have been remodeled and are very nice. Brand new appliances, wood floors, etc. Friendly neighbors, close to new shopping center. Overall a great place to live. Not super expensive but has a luxury feel. Over the next few years will become a hot spot to live.

There's lots to do, eat, and drink right in the Riverside neighborhood, and getting to downtown or the East side is so easy if you want to do something different. Lots of great local spots to eat (mostly counter-service style), ranging from sports bars to Tex Mex to Vietnamese food. There's plenty of standard chain restaurants as well (again mostly counter service places). Being close to the Town Lake trail is prime. Some areas don't feel very safe at night, but most of the streets are well-lit. Police often patrol the area, which could make you feel safer or more concerned. Overall, a great area to live that is constantly improving!

Riverside drive especially the east part is relatively a new growing neighborhood. Grocery shops like Walgreens, CVS and HEB are nearby. It is also a relatively safe area and calm. It is close to UT campus with a 10 min drive only in normal traffic.

Moreover it is surrounded with the beautiful access to the river and lady bird lake.
Night life is a bit not much available and most of the action is in downtown of Austin which is very close.

Riverside is growing with many restaurants and grocery shops. There are some constructions going on and it is relatively quiet unless it is rush hours.
It is close to downtown and to UT campus.

Relatively less safe than downtown because of homeless people around.

I heard Riverside had a less than perfect reputation before I moved here. I would say that the closer you are to the river the better you should be as it has also become a very desirable location. Riverside, as a neighborhood, is split by Riverside Drive, so try to find a place in the zone closest to the river. Also, prices are usually lower than in other areas closer to campus.

I really like how accessible it is to the other neighborhoods, given its location on the trail, but it is very new and they are putting up a bunch of new apartment buildings and the dining/bar scene hasn't quite filled out yet.

The path by the river is great if you like to cycle or run. I love running down to auditorium shores, using the outdoor gym and then running back. it's a perfect workout.
